The General Lee die cast toy will no longer be produced or sold.

What's next?

1. More Progress, that's what's next ... racist shit shouldn't be up in the first place

2. Should the TV show be removed from the air?

DVD sales of the Dukes of Hazzard be prohibited?

Sean William Scott, Johnny Knoxville, and Jessica Simpson should be shunned and never allowed to make a movie again?

Maybe Willy Nelson should be banished too ... he was in the Dukes of Hazzard movie.

Where does it end?

4. Nothing's being legally prohibited here. These are business decisions.

Companies are allowed to decide for themselves what products to offer consumers.

7. You appear confused. A decision predicated on the free market is neither ban nor a censor

You appear confused. A decision predicated on the free market is neither ban nor a censor. It's a choice made by the manufacturer.

Sales of the confederate flag too are not banned nor banished. Simply not distributed by large retail outlets. Should you desire to purchase one, you may still do so both legally and efficiently, and then hang it from your front porch and whistle Dixie whilst sipping a mint julip.



"Where does it end...?"
It never ends. That's the problem simpletons are unable to perceive due to their righteous and martyred struggles while hanging from a cross of their own design.

3. Before the Charleston tragedy...

a commercial was playing with the original duke boys driving the general lee minus the flag
now i'm sure that commercial is finished even though they removed the flag on their own

5. LOL

You are seriously upset at this? It's a toy, a toy with a racist flag painted on it, good riddance, imo.
